fromage!

Mostly my weekend was calm, but we did search for and find cheese! Usually, people here tell me they are getting "cheese" and they mean tofu. They call it cheese from the bean. But, there is actually cheese made here too, from cow milk. It is expensive-1 dollar for a round of it:) (the tofu cheese in this amount would cost about 30 cents). We bought some, and ate it, and it was so good! To get it, we had to drive about 30 minutes north (on a motorcycle, with my fancy new helmet), and find it on the side of the road. This isnt like everywhere else-where people sell things all along the side of the road. It was a fairly deserted road because you had to drive by the presidents house to get there and the guards only let certain people through (I think they let us through b/c they knew we wanted the cheese). I took a picture to show you all how deserted it is. And then there are these women and children just sitting there on this almost empty road, with cheese! Such a wonderful sight.
